i had never tried coconut milk yogurt before, so i was a little apprehensive about it. but that was silly of me because this stuff is delicious!! i tried the plain coconut flavor this time, but i’m excited to get some of the other flavors soon.

my snack was this bowl of blueberries and a green apple.

i didn’t feel hungry for the apple, so that’s on the menu for today’s lunch!

dinner was a group effort between brad, liz, and me: breakfast for dinner!

we made a big omelette, so breakfast potatoes, and a nasty steamfresh mix of veggies. the lima beans were like chewing chalk. here’s my thing with steamfresh veggies: i love having them for times like last night when we decided we needed more veg at the last minute. but i only really like the green beans, broccoli, and broccoli/cauliflower ones. but i always grab at least one bag of the mixed veggies when i stock up because it seems like a good idea. now we’ve got 3 or 4 bags of the mixed veggies in the freezer because we never eat them! it’s a viscous cycle…

we also got some great news yesterday…..

my love bug is now a licensed chiropractor in the state of wisconsin!!! i’m so proud and happy for him that this stuff is finally happening so he can start practicing!

I like some frozen veggies – like peas, corn and broccoli – but can’t stand others – like green beans. They can be good when they aren’t the main star of your meal. My kids like to eat their peas and corn still frozen as a snack. Weird, yes.

I haven’t tried that specific SteamFresh, but their other products are good. Actually, I sometimes buy the sugar snap peas (which can be so expensive fresh) and then only steam them halfway, so they still have a bite/crunch and I can dip them in hummus. Is that weird?

I’ve been curious about that almond milk yogurt! I see it on the shelves at the store, but have been waiting for it to be on dairy clearance before I try it. 🙂

cottage cheese and pasta in the microwave!? I never would have come up with that- sounds awesome! I love savory cottage cheese. I like steamed frozen veggies, but I don’t think I’ve ever gotten Steam Fresh…I just get the store brand and nuke them in the micro!
Congrats to Brad!
